When I picked them up the gentleman (a different one, was so nice informative, I really appreciated the service I received. I told him, when I get flowers for anything (birthdays and etc.) my family always get them from Essex Florist, so I knew they would be beautiful. Thank you for your kindness and I will get all my flowers from you. J. Browning

The delivered breakfasts were sublime and arrived on time with an extra steaming coffee pot. We could walk to various shops and restaurants in Irvington, which is wonderful.

The steak was bursting with flavor and cooked well. The chef also came out and met with us, which I thought was really nice. The only reason it's not 5 stars is the bar had limited options, and I really disliked the dessert. But those were really minor complaints. I had a great time and left happy.

This is a thrift shop, so you don't know what you'll find, but whatever you happen upon, it's sure to be well priced. The shop is well organized and neat, with aisles wide enough to not feel claustrophobic. They had lots of books and magazines, of course, and shelves of small appliances. (An electric knife sharpener for $8!) They had baskets of sewing notions and fabrics, plus some clothing. If you like beautiful China, they had a set of Limoges for a steal. Now, the volunteers/employees- so nice! I wish I lived closer, because I think I'd be a regular customer.

SHOPPING EXTAVAGANZA! Wowwwwww Weeeee…read more..... Was in Chris Brown's childhood hometown, Tappahanock, Va. and ran across this sensational shop. Tappahanock although a small town near the bay noticeably has charm and a smig of culture. As I was driving on Route 17, I noticed the bright colored flags flying in the wind outside this store. I actually drove by but the items on the front porch and colorful flags caught my attention & made me turn around. YIPPEE, glad I did. Oh where, oh where do I start?!? Jewelry by Waxing Poetic, calendars, appointment books, bottle holders key rings, etc. by Lilly Pulitzer, Lafco candles, serving-ware, napkins, house flags, sleep wear, make up bags, travel case, greeting cards and much more. I shopped for over an hour as there were upstairs, downstairs rooms and the front porch area that displayed a multitude of things to browse through. All the items on the front porch area were 50% off. Can you say BARGAIN!!!! Once I finally finished shopping, I could not believe the price I paid. I thought they had not charged me for all the items I selected and was a Happy Camper once the sales associate reported she had charged me for all items. She even jokingly said she would charge me more if I wanted. In the words of the infamous Sweet Brown, "Ain't nobody got time for that". I am so elated about my LP appointment book, LP gifts for friends, several sleep wear tops, travel shoe shine kit, and ornate book markers. Customer Service is excellent. The sales associates/owner(s) are courteous and are not hovering over you as you shop. Can't wait until next month when I'm headed back down that way. You best believe I will be stopping here to shop. If you are ever near this place, you must stop in buy gifts for others or yourself. Happy Shopping!!!
